Messina-Genaro Debate 

A form of debate developed due to the flaws with Public Form and Lincoln Douglas Debate. The format is slightly different in a sense that there is an inherant Value and Value Criterion. The Value is "Crispyness" and the Value Criterion is "Jeffersonism".
Messina-Genaro Debate is far more crispy than LD and PF.

Meta-Debate

The debate about how to properly conduct a debate, which inevitably becomes a more heated and pedantic debate than the original one. It's when the argument shifts from the topic (e.g., "Is pizza a sandwich?") to the rules of engagement ("You're using an ad hominem!", "No, that's a tu quoque!"). It's the rhetorical equivalent of two lawyers arguing over courtroom procedure while the jury dies of old age. The goal is no longer to persuade, but to win by declaring the other person's entire mode of discussion invalid.
Example: "We started arguing about rent control, but within minutes we were in a full meta-debate about logical fallacies, burden of proof, and the definition of 'evidence.' Two hours later, we'd solved nothing about housing but were deeply angry about the proper use of the Socratic method."

schmegegge

I don't buy the schmegegge about Morty sleeping with Moira.
His version of the story was pure schmegegge.
The whole schmegegge was made up to get Liz a little bit of attention.
